Mediterranean Tuna

Philip Friedman/Studio D

If you've never — or rarely — tried a long, sweet, thin-skinned English cucumber, you're in for a treat with this tuna salad recipe. With Kalamata olives and tomatoes, these cukes add a sweet crunch to this easy-to-prepare staple. There's no need to peel 'em, since they're not waxed (plastic shrink-wrap protects the skin), and no need to de-seed, as they're virtually seedless.
